Hi Everybody!

Thanks for checking out our new website! For those of you in our gyms you know that this year we're serious about dreams. I read a book last fall called The Dream Manager. It inspired me to do for our staff what was just a fable in the book. I just knew it could work!
In December we hired two people whose specific job is to meet with our staff on a monthly basis and help them to achieve their dreams. They are the TRICKS Dream Managers: Colleen Chamberlain and Jen Kerr.
At the staff holiday parties in December we gave everyone a simple journal and challenged them to write down 100 things they want to do in life. We bring our journals when we meet with the dream managers, pick out a few to work on that month and then off we go. It's simple but proving to be very powerful. Just to know that someone cares and is going to encourage you to do things that you might not have kept as a priority, is pretty cool. I'm speaking for myself because I get to meet with Colleen and have really enjoyed our meetings.
I also gave my kids dream journals for Christmas. You're never to young or too old to start dreaming big. Where do you think TRICKS came from anyway?
What are your dreams? Barbara Jo
